    Four long sectors in the last few weeks, and it seems to me this is now back to normal.

    Who is going to the USA, who has changed their travel and what will you do differently?

    They are violent criminals who are illegally in the country. Sounds fine to me.

    Less than Good experience on SQ out of Dubai

    Scoot pilots didn't get the memo. Quite bumpy at times but no seatbelt sign for the duration of SYD-SIN.

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Arrived at SIN on a Scoot flight from SYD on Mon 7 April, all pax and their hand luggage were security screened in the terminal upon deplaning. I wonder why?

    Singapore Lounge for Virgin Australia Lounge Member flying SQ

    Just a reminder to have your friend complete the online SG Arrival Card prior to arrival, if they want to enter Singapore. It is free so any website that is official looking but wants to charge a fee is a scam.

    Meet me in the SQ Lounge thread

    Because Australia is so un-racist, it is particularly jarring when you come across it (frequently) in Asia.

Enter Singapore (as per above comments) and visit one of the staff canteens (hawker centres) T1 or T2. Visit the underground carnival and food court in basement T3. Or even go to East Coast and...

    Will you still earn/retain Velocity status beyond 2025?

    Mate, you need to try a bit of Zen, like that person on that other thread claims to be (but isn't).

    Will you still earn/retain Velocity status beyond 2025?

    Will you still earn/retain Velocity status beyond 2025?

    I sorta grudgingly admit that this makes sense. Why should a miserable $49 flight to Ballina earn more than 2 SCs, and it's a decent earn if you are crazy enough to fork out for a Flex fare.

    Things Qantas Does & Doesn't Do Well

    The only thing they are really good at is PR - getting soft coverage in the media ("Qantas launches insane sale", "Qantas has slashed the cost of its flights...") and on sites like Executive Traveller.

    Pax putting phone on speaker mode throughout flight and ignoring crew requests

    The fact that you keep replying and disagreeing multiple times to multiple comments tells me you have not Zenned out at all.

    Nah. A220 is Bombardier CS series. E190 is Embraer.

    Yes, disturbing is the word. And yes also lots of nice places to see in Nanjing.
